Reviews for The Charlevoix in Grosse Pointe Park, MI
Nice place with great food and good drinks. Nashville Hot Catfish Nuggets are definitely hot! If you love spicy food, that?s it.... The smashed potatoes were my favorite. Read more
AMAZING! I'm the type of person who's not easily pleased, but damn! The Charlevoix exceeded my expectations. I wandered in on a... Thursday night with a couple of friends with a very curious taste buds for cocktails, po boys sandwich and wings. When I walkedin I was immediately greeted with friendly smiles. We were lucky to arrive on time because the place was nearly packed. Theambiance was chill with good music, that goes along with their trendy paintings and decors. TRADITIONAL DRINKS: My first orderwas their bloody mary. It was served very quickly and neatly. They had a variety of hotsauces available with Louisiana Cajun toMexico's finest. Bar tender made my bloody mary served with bacon and a meat stick. I ate the bacon immediately ofcourse. FOOD: I followed with up their Salt & Pepper Shrimp. They were JUMBO shrimps served with mint, cilantro, jalapeno,peppercorn, and smoked mayo. Growing up Asian I was use to peeling the skin and pulling the heads of the deep fried shrimps.However, in this case, because the shrimps mixture with salt+pepper and mint, I left no scraps. Out of my years growing upAsian, I never really ate the whole shrimp because in most places their the skin and head is all elastic and difficult to chew.With The Charlevoix, the way the chef cooked it, the skin and head were crunchy and easy to chew! No surprise, I ordered thenext shrimp item on the menu. Their Shrimp Po'Boy was absolutely delicious, shrimps weren't the jumbo ones I had earlier, but itwas perfect because every bite had at least 2-3 shrimp full. Absolutely delicious. Of course, you can't leave a bar withouttrying their chicken wings. As a big fan of Chicken Wings I ordered their Salt and Vinegar Chicken Wings. The salt wasperfectly caramelized on the skin, and the excess salt on the plate was perfect for that extra rub after my first bite. I warnyou if you're a fan of wings, this is the next addicting thing to Lemon Pepper Wings. COCKTAILS/SHOTS: Lemon drop shots Read more
Great hidden gem! Popped in one night for dinner after reading about this place on a social media community group page. The... reviews and recommendations were not wrong. Atmosphere: This place is a VIBE at night. The decor is clean and moderncontemporary with good music filling the room. Good drinks flow from the bar. Even better food flows from the kitchen. I enjoyedlistening to the other tables rave about the look and taste of their meals. Other patrons from different tables would get up toinquire about food they saw. My only knock against this location is the amount of noise. The music is loud so patrons talklouder. The noise lessened a smidgen after the windows were opened and the lights were dimmed. Food: I enjoyed the Brusselsprout caesar salad, Thai style wings, and Bacon kimchi fried rice. Kept it classic with a Lemon drop from the bar. Lovedeverything! I would explain in detail what my pallet experienced, but you should go see for yourself. You will not bedisappointed. Matter of fact I'll meet you there! Read more
Wonderful bar with fantastic, unique food. Excellent service and lovely staff. If you like spicy food they always have some... great options! Parking is easy too, between their own lot and plenty of street parking. Read more
This is one of my favorite spots to eat. Every menu item is unique and bursts with flavor and is always consistent time after... time. Their cocktails are fantstic too. If you're far away it's definitely worth a drive Read more
I LOVE the carrot tostada! The feta potatoes are good, but lacking depth of flavor. The wings are delicious too. I had to give a... lower rating because when dining in they brought my husband the wrong order and took it away when mentioned. I asked what theydid with it and I was told it went to a take out order. I don't think I can ever eat here after that. Read more
This place was busy... So expect a wait especially if you have more than 4 people. The service was great, and the staff was... great about their mask policies. Bathroom was clean (always a plus). Lastly the food was great... I got the Le Cordon Bleusandwich and it was fantastic. I will say the modern look they are going for isn't my favorite, and their chairs are definitelynot the comfiest (I'm sure that's on purpose to not have people there too long), but I still definitely recommend coming herefor a bite to eat and a drink.

Food is on point every single time. Whether it?s the rotating specials or the standby classics, I?m impressed every visit.... Service is always great and they are consistently working magic behind the bar as well. Can?t recommend this place enough. Comein for a comforting solo feast or a boozy shared meal w good friends, and you will be so glad you did! Read more
